Are these bulbs suitable for outdoor xmas light strings?

I have only used them as chandelier bulbs..they have small fittings similar to Christmas lights. My answer to you is they are not described as OUTDOOR LIGHTS.

I wish I could say for sure as I have not used it in that fashion, but should fit any base that uses the candelbara type of socket. Hope this helps.

I would imagine so. I do not recall any warning on the box or in the ad that specified. " indoor use only." Hope that helps.--Jeffrey in DE.

Yes, they are... though they are not colored... they are crystal clear... as long as the base size is what you need.

If you are looking for clear bulbs with glowing filament I think they would be OK. Be sure they are the correct base for your light string. Have a Merry Christmas!!

Yes I think they stated they were ok for outdoor. We have used them outdoors for lighting a lawn area but take them in after the event

Yes but not exposed to rain, sleet or snow, they start out dim and brighten as they heat up, you can use them, but I would suggest regular light bulbs, hope this helps, some !

I'm no bulb expert but, I would assume a 75 watt outdoor bulb would be good. Ask someone at your local hardware store. I'm sure you can find one for under $10.

I would say yes. We use them in lamps but I don't see why you couldn't use them in hall ceiling fixtures or outdoor lighting.

I used the lights outdoor and the suited the occasion perfectly. The lights are warm and not the cool blue bright lights. If your room is big then you will be fine.

These lights are not meant for outdoor use, as they are not sealed to keep moisture out. You may be able to use them under an overhang where they are protected from the weather but they wouldn't last long where I live in New England.

If it's not 12 feet of lights it is close. You can add additional strings too. We love our lights and use them 365 days a year outdoors and normally get a few years of use before having to replace them.

I doubt they would last in the weather. And the adhesive isn't all that strong. Rope lights are designed for outdoors

They fit an indoor screw light socket. I doubt that they would fit a Christmas light string.

I have used similar ones in an outside post light with good results. Will install these and update is there are any issues.

Yes they are for outdoors I've been using them for 6 months outdoors and they are great. Best distribution of light. Highly recommend them.

I don't see why not. They appear to be sealed like any other light bulb on the market. So long as there is shielding from direct rain fall (as in a standard outdoor fixture) it should be fine. The only issue may be the light output. Generally outdoor lights for usable illumination are rated at 100 watts while this bulb is rated to replace 60 watt incandescent bulbs. It is still a bright light and perfect for indoor use or perhaps as a porch light, but as an area light for outdoors you may want something with more output.

I used them outdoors, no problem. They were however, inside a light fixture.

Yes, I am using these both inside and outside. Obviously needs to be in an approved outdoor fixture. These are better than CFL's outside, especially in cold weather, as they are instantly at full brightness without any warm-up period.

I'm not sure if they will be safe to use outside. You probably can, but I use them inside for my night lights.

I would use them outdoors as long as the bulbs are not directly exposed to rain. You might want to seal the screw cap diffuser with some teflon tape to improve moisture protection. A 12 volt bulb would not cause any danger of electrocution so try it! I would! If the bulb is visibly exposed, consider the Warm White Light Bulb instead of the High Power White LED Bulb. Both kinds put out about the same amount of light, an amazing amount of light considering the low power draw. I am super pleased with these bulbs and I certainly would put them in outdoor lighting. On the box they claim the bulbs will last up to 100,000 hours. That is 11.4 years if my math is correct. I hope this was helpful. Alfred Thorsberg.
